When it comes to spray foam insulation, there are many options out there. From rolled fiberglass to cotton batting alternatives, rigid foam panels to fluffy loose-fill—all of these options offer great benefits. Depending on your home’s needs and your climate, you will need to decide what type of attic insulation is best for you.
The basic purpose of attic insulation is to trap heat inside your house and keep it from escaping outside. A material’s effectiveness in doing this is rated by its R-Value—the higher the R-Value, the more effective the insulation. If you’re looking to lower your energy bills, adding more attic insulation is a great way to start.
Evaluating the Cost of Advanced Seal Spray Foam Insulation
Low attic insulation levels and air leaks make your heating and cooling system work harder, which drives up your utility bills. You can easily determine if you have enough attic insulation by a simple DIY inspection. All you need is access to your attic, a ladder and some kind of measuring tool (ladder or tape measure) to see how much attic insulation you have currently installed.
Fiberglass insulation is the most common option and available in batts, which are large rolled-up sheets that look like cotton candy. It is inexpensive and highly effective. Some varieties of fiberglass insulation are faced with a moisture barrier facing, which protects the attic from rot. Other types of fiberglass insulation do not have a moisture barrier and can be susceptible to mold and mildew.
